TECHNICAL FIELD

The present invention relates to a functional panties, and more specifically, to form spaces for accommodating the penis and the scrotum separately above and below a central opening. In addition, a lower end of the protective fabric forming a scrotum receiving space protrudes forward so that a separate scrotum insertion space is further formed in a scrotum receiving space. Thus, functional panties that minimize a contact between the penis and the scrotum.

BACKGROUND

As is well known, men's panties are provided in a triangular or square shape, and are made of a material that is soft and excellent in texture that can prevent contamination of the skin due to the characteristics of contact with the body. In particular, in the case of the scrotum (or testicle) constituting the male genitals, unlike the penis, it is known that sperm is not only vigorous at a temperature of about 1 to 3° C. lower than body temperature, but also has a strong sexual desire and sexual function.

In addition, in the case of the scrotum, the possibility of contact with external air is lowered by wearing the panties, and it is often maintained in a wet state due to the characteristics of the breathless panties. Due to this, a dampness may be generated, which may cause various skin diseases, and may cause odor.

In order to solve the above problems, in recent years, various types of functional panties have been developed and released, but most of the components have ceramics in which far-infrared rays are emitted are provided where the penis is located or are provided in the area where the scrotum contacts.

With this configuration, it is intended to activate the scrotum and penis through the release of far-infrared rays, thereby excluding the cause of the dampness and preventing skin diseases while removing odor while contributing to the improvement of sexual function.

However, in this case, there may be some effects due to the emission of far infrared rays in the initial stage, but since the emission of far infrared rays decreases or is not often released due to frequent washing, etc. Thus, it is only a temporary measure, so it is not helping to solve the underlying problem.

On the other hand, Korean utility model publication No. 20-0386466, functional men's panties is disclosed that allow scrotum removing moisture by air circulation through contact with external air, removing the cause of skin diseases, and removing odors, as well as to improve sexual function while removing odor.

According to the related art, a panties body is provided with an entrance so that it can respond to various bodies by adding elastic means such as rubber bands to the upper part, a pair of leg openings are formed to insert legs on lower both sides of the panties body, a penis pocket is formed to protrude so that the penis can be positioned at the central position of the panties body, the penis pocket is composed of burlap having excellent breathability and a rough texture, the upper part of the burlap where the penis of the genital is located comprises a cover made of fabric paper, and only the lower part of the burlap where the scrotum is located is left open.

The related art of such a structure is useful in its own way in that it can remove an odor while preventing skin diseases by excluding the cause of the dampness.

However, the related art as described above may perform a unique function of burlap in the summer season when the outside temperature is high due to its characteristics. In the spring and winter when the outside temperature is low, the cause of damage to the body is provided due to a phenomenon such as a broken burlap. In addition, since the penis pocket is protruding to the outside, there are several problems, such as the appearance of the family being poor due to the protruding penis pocket when wearing only panties in the home.

In particular, the related art is said to separate the penis separately to prevent contact with the skin, the penis and scrotum that make up the genitals are not separated, but are stored together in one genital pouch, so the penis and the scrotum must contact each other, this results in problems such as loss of the function of the genital pouch, i.e., due to continued contact between the scrotum and the penis, the occurrence of the dampness and/or various skin diseases.
